CAGAYAN DE ORO, Philippines (Updated 4:42 p.m.) — Two people were hurt after police dispersed a human barricade formed by residents of Sibuyan Island in Romblon in response to the sudden escalation of mining activities there, environmental groups reported Friday.

 

Videos posted by groups Alyansa Tigil Mina and Living Laudato Si’ showed local police dispersing community members protesting the operations of Altai Philippines Mining Corporation (APMC) on Sibuyan Island.

 

This allowed three trucks of APMC carrying nickel ore for export to pass through.
